Maryland’s Pro-Marriage Camp Outpaced Opponents 2:1

November 29, 2012 by Andrew Belonsky

6a00d8341c730253ef017ee42fe229970d-150wiSome amazing news out of Maryland, where pro-equality activists reportedly brought in more than twice the amount of donations than their anti-gay opponents.

Supporters of a Maryland ballot measure in favor of gay marriage raised more than twice the amount of opponents trying to defeat the measure.

Campaign finance reports filed this week show Marylanders for Marriage Equality, the main group behind the ballot measure, raised more than $5 million. The Maryland Marriage Alliance, which opposed the law, reported raising about $2.4 million.

Just another example of how the hateful, homophobic organizations are falling further out of favor among the American public. Excellent.
